If that's the drive, then that's not looking good for getting anything off

It turns out that the device uses a "special" filesystem. I recommend making
a copy of the hard drive and working with that. Here's a script that looks
like it can get the files off:

Much thanks for your help on this.
Some progress, but no recovery yet. The script does run for a while, the
ZIF caddy light blinks like a typical drive light, and then it exits
after a minute or so with the following message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/pyz/projects/Documents/VideosMP3s/ZenRecover/zenrecover.py",
line 251, in <module>
raise "Could not find the root inode"
TypeError: exceptions must be old-style classes or derived from
BaseException, not str
From reading the python script, it requires four command line arguments.
The first of these, the argument for the disk, requires an offset for
the filesystem start.
So far, I've used /dev/sdb but have not specified an offset since the
brief help screen indicates that the default offset is 20M.
I'm uncertain if this (not specifying the offset) is the cause of the
error.
Thanks again,
